Is Work Simply a Form of Energy?

How did you find PF?
a google search on how a joule can be used to measure work AND energy.
I've found some sound and not so sound answers so far. The most interesting is one saying that work is simply one form of energy. The answer used math to support it, but I haven't checked the math yet. Adult ADD, I believe, prompted me to move on instead. Maybe I just have no patience. Idk…

Hi everyone, I'm just a physics enthusiast. I took some first-year courses a long time ago, but I wasn't able to continue, so I don't have a degree. Still, I'm really passionate about the subject and try to keep up with it as much as I can. I mostly study in my (limited) free time, going through books I didn’t get the chance to read when I was younger. Thanks for your attention!
